That is a bit weird...something similar happens with mine too and it's directly related to how hot the car gets. I don't think it's a simple case of how hot the tranny fluid gets either. I would think after 30 minutes of driving and an hour of hard driving the fluid would get about equally as hot and have little noise dampening effect...

Is there anything internally within the transmission that would make this noise, the hotter the car gets, or could it be the clutch or flywheel?

Could it be a loose input shaft bearing or anything like that? Any tests to see ifs an internal tranny issue or a clutch flywheel issue?

I could have written your post exactly the same

Any tell tale signs to tell if it's an internal issue within the gearbox? I would think if something were messed up inside the tranny, then the rattle would be there all the time and not just when the car is hot after being driven hard for a while.
